For information about monitoring the LEDs for your N6200 series system and
optional adapter cards, refer to the
IBM System Storage N series Platform Monitoring
Guide
.
For diagnostic information about your N6200 series system, see the
IBM System
Storage N series System-Level Diagnostics Guide
.
Configuring the N6200 series system
Refer to the completed configuration worksheet for your storage system. The
configuration worksheet is provided in the
Data ONTAP Software Setup Guide
for
your version of Data ONTAP, available on the IBM N series support website,
which is accessed and navigated as described in “Websites” on page xxii.
For information about how to boot your filer for the first time, refer to the
Installation and Setup Instructions
that came with your system.
For gateway systems, initial startup and configuration tasks must be performed by
IBM. For additional information about gateway systems, refer to the list of gateway
documentation provided in the "Bibliography" appendix of the
IBM System Storage
N series Introduction and Planning Guide
. This guide, as well as other N series
documentation, is available on the IBM N series support website, which is accessed
and navigated as described in “Websites” on page xxii.
Configuring the Fibre Channel port
Each N6200 series system controller module provides two independent Fibre
Channel ports, identified as 0c and 0d. SFPs must be firmly seated in all four ports
before connecting cables.
The Fibre Channel ports can operate in target or initiator mode. Fibre Channel
ports do not support mixed initiator/target mode. The default mode for the ports
is initiator mode. You do not need to configure the ports to use them in initiator
mode.
The Fibre Channel ports should be used in initiator mode to communicate with
tape backup devices, such as in a TapeSAN backup configuration.
Fibre Channel ports on HBAs cannot be configured in target mode. They can only
be used in initiator mode.
Configuring for initiator mode
About this task
To configure the system back to initiator mode, complete the following steps.
